"Elektra," there was an appetizer in the form of "II Signor Bruschino," a Rossini comic opera enjoying its first American hearing. There used to be tales that the composer had loaded up this one-acter with rowdy devices such as bass notes for the soprano and pipings for the bass, but except for the rapping of violin bows on the stands in the over- ture, there wasn't any horseplay. "II Signor Bruschino" served chiefly to demonstrate the skill of Miss Fleischer and the Messrs. De Luca and Pinza. It went lightly and smartly, and the only objection was that the violin stands, in the overture, seemed to be out of tune. ^ MERICAN music and musicians are rl. getting about these days. Mr. Iturbi, in a recital that was exceþtional even in this season of super-pianism, in- troduced a bracket of short works by Robert Russell Bennett, to the obvious delight of an audience which almost rose up and shook hands with this sensi- tive, imaginative music. Among other things, Mr. Iturhi's venture proved that an American musician doesn't have to be born in Europe to write with abso- lute mastery of his idiom. Mme. Eva Gauthier, ever a maker of uncommon song programs, introduced four musi- cians whom the house bill had down as "Young Americain composers." Wint- ter Watts, not the youngest, proved to be the most distinctive of this group, and singers might poke around for more of his songs. They're worth the trouble. Although there seems to be a law against the employment of American conductors at the major events of our elder orchestras, the Philadelphia band arrived in Carnegie Hall with Eugene Ormandy, whose directorial experience has been principally American and who acquired no small part of his remarkable technique of the baton in the stringent training of cinemas and radio. Mr. Ormandy, alert, musicianly, and free from "interpretative" bosh, stepped into the big league with vigorous assurance and clicked, as they are saying, imme- diately. -ROBERT A. SIMON .
